<pre class="literalblock">
Credentials object for OAuth 2.0.

Credentials can be applied to an httplib2.Http object using the
authorize() method, which then signs each request from that object
with the OAuth 2.0 access token. This set of credentials is for the
use case where you have acquired an OAuth 2.0 access_token from
another place such as a JavaScript client or another web
application, and wish to use it from Python. Because only the
access_token is present it can not be refreshed and will in time
expire.

AccessTokenCredentials objects may be safely pickled and unpickled.

Usage:
  credentials = AccessTokenCredentials('&lt;an access token&gt;',
    'my-user-agent/1.0')
  http = httplib2.Http()
  http = credentials.authorize(http)

Exceptions:
  AccessTokenCredentialsExpired: raised when the access_token expires or is
    revoked.
